Discworld/A Hat Full of Sky/Tear Jerker

When Tiffany Aching is making the rounds with Granny Weatherwax and has to tell the truth to an elderly patient whose life savings she'd stolen while possessed by the hiver and finds that his money has been replaced with gold by her friends, the Nac Mac Feegle. Particularly, when the old man forgives her as if nothing ever happened and then asks for her help in preparing to propose to the widow down the street.

When it turns out that the hiver is scared rather than evil, and Tiffany talks to it and gives it a name right before sending it out to die.
